Actually...AP does have a point.
I took my multi back in the '80s in a 150 HP Piper Apache. If I recall, critical engine out...all the other engine did was drag you to the scene of the crash because the S/E rate of clime was -50FPM.
That being said, any professional pilot who flys Transport Catagory Swept Wing Aircraft know that you do not use ailerons to help offset engine out performance like you do in recips/ straight wing aircraft. None of the 1/2 ball out, 5 degrees into the operating engine nonsense...that stuff is for girls...lol.
Lastly, American Airlines had 4,000 some odd pilots furloughed from 2001 until about 3 months ago and did not offer pilot positions nor were there even pilot recruitment operations going on from the fall of 2001 until the first new hires were welcome aboard at the end of 2013.
